Biography:

Dr.Kui Wang obtained his BS and MS degrees from Sichuan University. In2012, he went to Clarkson University and obtained his Ph.D. workingon wood pellet boiler heating system in terms of its performanceevaluation, emission control, dynamic modeling, and systemoptimization. His research was recognized by NYSERDA for providinglong-term field operating data and system optimization strategy. Hestayed at Clarkson University for another year after finishing hisPh.D. in 2017 working as a consultant for the evaluation of theretrofitted wood pellet boiler system located in Tupper Lake WildCenter Museum. In July 2018, he went to Cornell University and workedwith Professor Jefferson Tester on hydrothermal conversion of biomassand wastes for energy, fuels, and materials for more than threeyears. In October 2021, he joined Hefei University of Technology asan Associate Professor in the School of Chemistry and ChemicalEngineering through the “Young Huangshan Scholar” program. Hecontinues to collaborate with Professor Tester at Cornell Universityas a Visiting Associate Professor until 2024.



ResearchInterests：


Dr.Kui Wang’s research focuses on the valorization of biomass andwastes through thermochemical conversion pathways including, but notlimited to hydrothermal processing, pyrolysis, and combustion. Byintegrating multiple technologies to maximize the energy recovery,materials upgrading, and environmental benefits of biomass wastesmanagement.


Heis also enthusiastic to uncover the fundamental guiding principlesbehind the formation mechanisms of carbon-based materials, includinghydrochar, carbon nanospheres, carbon quantum dots, etc. He hopes tofind better alternative substitutes for fossil-based materials suchas plastics and chemical fertilizers by studying these fundamentalmechanisms in detail. He hopes to build a circular bioeconomy for thefuture society with artificial intelligence (such as machinelearning) for better energy system optimization.
